Intellisense fails for boost::shared_ptr with Boost 1.40.0 in Visual Studio 2008
- by Edward Loper
I'm having trouble getting intellisense to auto-complete shared pointers for boost 1.40.0. (It works fine for Boost 1.33.1.) Here's a simple sample project file where auto-complete does not work:
#include <boost/shared_ptr.hpp>
struct foo
{ bool func() { return true; }; };
void bar() {
boost::shared_ptr<foo> pfoo;
pfoo.get(); // <-- intellisense does not autocomplete after "pfoo."
pfoo->func(); // <-- intellisense does not autocomplete after "pfoo->"
}
When I right-click on shared_ptr, and do "Go to Definition," it brings be to a forward-declaration of the shared_ptr class in . It does not bring me to the actual definition, which is in However, it compiles fine, and auto-completion works fine for "boost::." Also, auto-completion works fine for boost::scoped_ptr and for boost::shared_array.
Any ideas?
